Celebrating diversity: Our proud participation in Tokyo Rainbow Pride 2024

2024-05-10

We at MHD Moët Hennessy Diageo are thrilled to announce our participation in “Tokyo Rainbow Pride 2024”. Marking the 30th anniversary of the first pride event in Japan, this year's Tokyo Rainbow Pride was held in Yoyogi Park for two days from Saturday, April 20. A record number of approximately 270,000 people* celebrated gender diversity and equality. (*According to the organizer)

MHD participated in the event as a member of the LVMH Group. MHD employees marched in the parade held on Sunday, April 21, along with approximately 250 LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton Japan and Group brand employees and their families.

As a member of the LVMH Group, we value diversity, equity, and inclusiveness (DE&I) and are proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community in celebration of individuality and love.

This event represents more than just a parade; it is a powerful testament to the progress we have made towards acceptance and understanding. It also highlights the ongoing challenges we must still address. At MHD, we believe that our workforce should reflect the diverse tapestry of the communities we serve. We strive not only to create products and services that resonate with people from all walks of life but also to foster an environment where every employee feels seen, heard, and valued.

Our participation in Tokyo Rainbow Pride is just one aspect of our ongoing commitment to promoting DE&I both within our workplace and in society at large.

Building an Inclusive Society Through Art: Our Partnership with Able Art Japan

MHD Moët Hennessy Diageo has been fostering a collaborative project with the nonprofit organization Able Art Japan since 2017, under the pillar "Engaging Our Society" of our sustainability manifesto, Living Soils, Living Together.

As part of this initiative, we launched the “MHD Artist Scholarship Program” in 2020 to support artists with disabilities in expressing themselves through their art. Our goal is to broaden opportunities for creative expression and celebrate their talents as a society.

From July 4 to 31, we held the “Office Museum” exhibition at our Jinbocho headquarters and regional offices across Japan, showcasing works by six scholarship artists. The vibrant artworks brought our office spaces to life, offering employees fresh perspectives and inspiring creativity.

On July 5, we hosted a “Family Day” event at the Jinbocho office, welcoming employees, their families, and the artists. The event featured a hands-on tufting workshop led by artist NPF_kazuko (Kazuko Shuto) from Minamisanriku. Participants collaboratively crafted a rug, enjoying the textures of materials and freely mixing colors, while sharing smiles and conversation in a warm, inviting atmosphere.

By bringing together artistic passion and our support, this initiative nurtures and lays the foundation for a society where differences are embraced, and everyone has the opportunity to shine. MHD remains committed to connecting people and society through art and promoting respect and opportunity for all.
